You got me thinking about that word, CLI. I know that usually means a Unix shell, but when I just run my bespoke file conversion tool from CIDER REPL, that interface is also a command line one, what else is it?

What a CLI wants to be when it grows up.

Check the REPL experience from Lisp Machines and Xerox PARC Lisp/Mesa/Smalltalk workstations.

Think of Swift Playgrounds or Jupiter notebooks, done in late 70's hardware.
